Settling an estate most often requires an appraisal to acquire market value for the house affected. It's understandable that ordering an appraisal is the farthest thought from your mind. Of course, it's imperative to be there for your family first. The Appraisal Firm assures that our staff is knowledgeable about the procedures and requirements needed by the federal and California revenue agencies to supply a retrospective appraisal with an effective date and market value estimate matching the exact date of death. The ethical requirements listed within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) binds our company to confidentiality, certifying the fullest degree of discretion for you and your family.

The necessity of needing an appraisal when cooperating with the IRS to show income when filing documents is often misunderstood by most people.

An accurate report showing the appraiser's opinion of value is required to back the methods the appraiser used to come to his conclusions. Such a report will clearly demonstrate to the authorities that the numbers used are well-founded and correct.

Having a professional appraisal from The Appraisal Firm gives the executor solid facts and figures to work with in exceeding IRS and California state agency requirements. It assures peace of mind to everyone concerned because we are there to stand behind the appraisal if it is ever refuted.
